Washington, March l2.-Pending
decision by the Acknowledgement of
the question as to whether the
cruisers Chicago, Atlanta and Boston
can be completed by the Navy De-

Congress to make specific appropria'

vessels has been suspended. The
opinion is generally entertained that
the General fund appropriated for
construction and repairs can be used
to finish the work on the cruisers.
At the beginning of the present
month $50, 900 of this fund remained
available, after meeting the require
ments of the various navy yards,
and it is believed that this sum, If
applied to the new cruisers, would
suffice to complete them.
